Radhika Merchant and Anant Ambani have tied the knot! The couple celebrated their wedding last night in a grand ceremony attended by prominent figures from politics, entertainment, and business.

Radhika adorned a bespoke lehenga by Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla for the occasion, complemented by heirloom jewelry that holds special familial significance. These jewels were originally worn by her sister Anjali during her wedding in 2020 and passed down through generations in the Merchant family.

Radhika’s wedding ensemble featured a custom Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla lehenga inspired by the Gujarati tradition of Panetar, characterized by its red and white hues. The Zardozi cut-work outfit included a ghagra with a trailing silhouette and a detachable second trail, accompanied by a five-meter head veil, blouse, and tissue shoulder dupatta.

The ghagra was intricately adorned with three borders of red, embellished with Naqshi, Saadi, and Zardozi embroidery techniques, and adorned with floral booties embellished with stones, sequins, Tamba tikkis, and red Resham. The head veil and detachable trail showcased delicate jaali and cut-work, while the fully embroidered red shoulder dupatta added dramatic flair to the ensemble.

Radhika’s makeup, styled by Rhea, featured a minimalist approach with a focus on a red lip, sleek winged eyeliner, mascara, feathered brows, rouge-tinted cheeks, a delicate bindi, and a center-parted bun adorned with gajra (flower garland) and roses.
